LARGE PACKET

21-58 days. Discover the fresh flavor and satisfaction of picking lettuce from your own garden! This
exciting mix of butterhead, leaf, and romaine
lettuce will jazz up any meal. All varieties in
our gourmet mix remain wonderfully tasty,
even picked at full size. You don't have to
have a large vegetable garden to enjoy fresh
baby greens. Perfect for growing in containers
indoors or out, and pretty enough to use as a
border around your flower bed!

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 2 to 4
weeks before average last frost, and when soil
temperatures are 60°–70°F. Successive Sowings: Every 3 weeks until 2 weeks before the first fall frost. If using winter row covers, you can extend your season 2 to 4 weeks after first fall frost. In USDA zone 8 or warmer, also sow in fall for winter harvest. In summer’s heat, grow in the afternoon shade of other crops.

When to start inside: Any time for fresh mesclun year-round! Grow on a sunny windowsill or under grow lights.

Special sowing instructions: For growing full-sized
plants, see inside of packet.

Harvesting: Harvest individual leaves at 2"–4" tall for a
continual supply. If you wish to harvest mature heads, cut off
at 2" above ground level as soon as possible after head forms;
new leaves will grow from the center. The earlier the harvest,
the more tender the crop.
